Explain Mass.

[maxc]

Find something that's motionless? Of coarse it not observable by any normal equipment. Or is it?

[Little Bang]

Find something motionless with respect to what? There is no point in the universe that is absolute.

Which always confuses the heck out of me for understanding how you can consider something moving near the speed of light where it might be exceeding it according to something else..

[Qfwfq]

You might be less confused by it if you work out the Lorentz transformations properly. If v < c for one observer, it is so for all. It's a direct consequence of the transforms being those such that c is equal for all.

[arkain101]

What I mean is, when there is no absolute, there is no way to decifer which object is containing all the motion.

One observer might measure an object traveling .99C , and another observer that is moving but always considered itself at rest, might measure it to be covering distance faster than .99C, and maybe beyond "C" . I've seen, heard, and read many versions of how to explain this. Some claim an absolute and others dont. Its not about do I understand it, its about, which way is the right way to eliminate all paradox's and errors(?).

[Qfwfq]

Lorentz co-variant mechanics.

If you get that straight, everything matches up.

The shape of the mass is determined by the conflict between the surface angular momentum and the internal momentum.

Every orbiting mass has its own arrangement of dimensions based upon the direction of mass’s rotation and the direction its magnetic core is being pulled. For instance, the Earth’s magnetic core is spinning in contrast to its surface’s rotation.

Moving sideways but in a realtive motion, we must look at Einstein's discovery of dual natures in order to understand the existence of mass.

Why does light appear to have a dual nature? What is that dual nature?

The answer lies in the transmittance of frequencies. Frequencies consist of mass orbiting about a point.

The higher the pitch and the greater the frequency, the more energy the mass is absorbing AND transmitting; a crucial point, which speaks about the dual nature of existence.

Does the mass have its own energy or is it merely a conduit?

The answer is both. Mass consists of internal resonating frequencies arranged in patterns that bring the mass into existence.

The pattern of any given mass determines how it will interact with external frequencies.

This pattern of interaction determines the mass’s conductivity.

When two or more frequencies collide, energy is transferred.

Some frequencies can travel fairly easily past one another without exchanging too much energy, while other frequencies constantly clash, knocking each other out of orbit.

The most important thing to recognize is that all frequencies want to remain stable and struggle to regain stability when knocked out of balance.

Isotopes are evidence of stability.

Chemical bonds are evidence of stability.

The movement of high pressure to low pressure is evidence of stability.

The existence of frequencies determined by their boundaries is evidence of stability.

The subjects of mass and boundaries are both individually complex and yet inseparable. However, as similar as the two seem, boundaries has one logical advantage. Just like free roaming thoughts in your head are of little use until you logically take action and form them into words, sentences, and communicate them; mass without boundaries is much less logical than mass with boundaries. Boundaries provide logic to mass and are thus more logical because they have the ability to both exist as boundaries and yet logically communicate its boundaries to mass. Boundaries imply being set, which requires both knowledge of existence AND knowledge of creation. Mass does not know how to logically arrange itself without boundaries because Mass only knows how to exist.

The pattern of any given mass determines how it will interact with external frequencies.

This pattern of interaction determines the mass’s conductivity.....this obviously moves us beyond your original question.

Unlike other answers, you cannot separate your understanding of mass from your logical faculties and thus must delve into why your perception delivers specific logical outcomes. Nothing is separate.

Arkain, I take it back, there is one absolute point and that happens to be the position of the observer. Everything that one sees is always relative to the observer.

[arkain101]

If we consider mass as 1 dimension through time(point), C as the limit or 'box' (sides), at the front of time, and Energy as the area of that box. (e=mc^2)

We can represent it on a cube, and find that we can unfold that cube to reveals 6 squares that can be arranged in 11 different connected forms. That is, 6 dimensions for energy, in 11 arranged forms.

(not that I am suggesting anything in particular, this is just some crazy nonsense to think about)

[Lightfuzz]

Mass is the measure of inertia but why does object contain mass? I call these questions 'postulates', just like the ones in geometry. It's like asking why the universe exists (I don't think that can be answered).
